Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“So when we could stand it no longer…”
(1 Thessalonians 3:1)

I love knowing that Paul had that emotion, Jesus!

But it was more than mere emotion, wasn’t it?
You were moving on his heart to do something about it –

which is exactly what he did.

Work through my emotions too, LORD!

May they not be unreliable, leading me astray.
May they instead be guided by You

goading me, prompting me, pushing me, driving me

to do the very things You’ve called me to do!

Pray this Lazaroo with eyes right:

“‘In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.’ These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts…”
(Jude 1:18-19)

Doing what comes naturally sometimes works, Jesus

and sometimes doesn’t.

It’s unreliable!

Sometimes it leads to success
sometimes it leads me astray.

So that can’t be my mantra, my North Star.

I’ve got to line up whatever comes naturally

alongside the straightedge of Your Word

and do what comes supernaturally.

 Pray this Lazaroo in bedrock-deep resolve: 

“They are clouds without rain, blown along by the wind…”
(Jude 1:13)

People like this are nearly impossible to live with, Jesus!

They say one thing one day
something else the next.

They stand for nothing
fall for anything.

They stick up a wet finger
to determine which way the latest puff of air is blowing.

Their current position
depends on whoever they were last with.

May I never, never, ever!

be counted among their

unstable
unreliable
wishy-washy midst.
